Both mine sit there when they are sitting in traffic and warmed up, normal, I presume it goes down when you are on the move?

Does it sit that high if you're moving? If its there when you're in traffic then personally I wouldn't be all that worried. And has it ever actually gone into the red? The engines are pretty sturdy

Hi yes it sits that high when moving, when i first had the car it sat on the red light
and moved up to this temp when stuck in traffic but now it sit's this high when moving
i don't want to drive it too much now in case i blow the head gasket
any way ive orded a new rad so hopefully that will help
cheers phil
